Nooooo I love both of these songs šš
i dont wanna be here i dont wanna be here!!
next semester 
next sweepester
this is like choosing between your two children
Alright I came back to the perfect song battle. This is next semester without question. I kid you not next semester is top 5 TOP ever
WRONG i am right (i am ragebaiting)
Both of my loves man
But I gotta go with Next Semester
I think this Clancy ranking is really close to how I would rank it
WHAT THE FUCK

i will ride for navigating until i die
Donāt bring Gerard into this
pardon my delay iām voting navigating
NEXT SWEEP
ME TOO
so real
PELASE
This is next semester guys fr
SWEEP SEMESTER
not to be that guy but ragebaiting is against the bible
Navigating is a good song but Iām sorry it has nothing on next semester
Canāt change what Iāve done š
navigating probably wonāt win but itās ok. itās my baby
NAVIGATEING
Iām voting Next Semesterrrr
Next semester is immaculate, navigating is good
this is one where i don't mind either winning
next semester is a great song but i weep for navigating
got me through the past year
song and video weirdly applicable to my life
Next Semester for the win ā¼ļø
NEXT SEMESTER FTW
navigating is an a or s tier song from them, next semester is a top 5 song from them
Clancy sb 11 songs vs their seeding(fanmade from the 2 previous clancy song battles):
#1: Navigating(DEFENDING CLANCY SB WINNER)
#2: At The Risk Of Feeling Dumb
#3: Midwest Indigo
#4: Vignette
#5 Oldies Station
#6: Routines In The Night
#7: Next Semester
#8: Overcompensate
#9: Paladin Strait
#10: Lavish
#11: Backslide
#12: Snap Back
#13-14:The Craving (both versions)
navigating is my second fav song on clancy i love it so much
Next semester has helped me have to vote it
navigating please
Iām honestly not nice enough to put navigating up in A tier but next semester is top 5 till the end (not till the end I meant till Breach blows my mind)
Iām taking Navigating here but I am not mad at either of these winning. Both are incredible and are close to equal
Iām gonna go cry to Next Semester now guys have fun
plus next semester is gonna win anyways and i love both songs so iāll vote for navigating
i forgot how dirty next semester got done last time
From all infos taken here Navigating wins this easily
the clique loves next semester too much
navigating will win bc every song battle up until this point 80% of the songs i choose lose ššš
next semester is arguably one of their top 5 songs of all time
DONT BOO ME I CANT CHANGE THIS THIS ISNT MY OPINION ššš
Agreed but statistically Navigating wins I'm pretty sure
It'd be an upset otherwise
Someone convince me to vote one way or the other
like itās making me question do i rly not like the same songs the majority of the community do i swear my choices were the obvious ones 
1: Overcompensate (10/10)
2: NEXT SEMESTER (10/10)
3: Paladin Strait (10/10)
4: Vignette (10/10)
5: At the Risk of Feeling Dumb (10/10)
6: Backslide (9/10)
7: Navigating (8/10)
8: Routines in the Night (7/10)
9: Lavish (7/10)
10: Oldies Station (7/10)
11: The Craving (Jennaās Version) (7/10)
12: Snap Back (6/10)
13: Midwest Indigo (5/10)
if next semester doesnāt win iām going to do something drastic
I love them both theyāre sister songs with good differences
Start fresh next semester
how dare you do this to us
I said convince me not quite a lyric 
Oh Lord it's Oldies vs the winner of here
I shouldnāt have to convince anyone that next semester is an immaculate work of art
I NEED to hear next semester live
I agree- but navigating is too and thatās my problem
Next semester live was unreal, especially fading in from heathens
Guys I love Navigating but it'd be so cool if Oldies wins š
Whatās my problem well I want you to follow me down nevermind
i lost my voice at next semester went a bit too hard during tht performance
Navigating isnāt really
iād say vote navigating since next semester is winning anyways
Teehee, haha, haaahhā¦

LEVEL UP: You are now level 6!
to the bottom underneath the insane asylum
They better play it on breach tour so I can lose my voice again
gotta be next semester
It is tho and I relate to Navigating more most of the time even though the message of Next Semester is so good
navigating is a weak song ngl
NAVIGATING SWEEP
it bangs but
NS is better i will die on this hill
You gotta be joking
Woww litteraly top 2 on Clancy, but imma go with Navigating
Vignette's dropping in seeding after this š
next peakmester like i said yesterday amen
This is facts tho like the bridge is unbelievably face level, up front saying ākinda feels like everybody leavesā too obvious
If you really wanna know what Iām thinkingā¦
sorry navigating but NEXT SEMSSTERRR
navigating is not weak but next semester is too goated
you said itās an 8/10 and now ur saying its a weak song????
Next semester is too goated facts
no š navigating has gotten me through stuff š
i have to go with next semester š i had a rough time last year (was severely depressed due to school) and next semester helped me through it
Instrumental saves it
the chorus doesn't really work, I love the song and have listened 100s of times
whatsup
This is made so powerful tho cause Tyler usually doesnāt write like this, then he breaks down and just says straight up what heās thinking, itās a powerful song
i have super personal connections with both songs but navigating is just. aough
Kinda feels like everybody leavesā¦
Yeah he doesnāt write like this, he writes better than this and doesnāt stoop to this level
I REMEMBER CERTAIN THINGS
real, for me it's next semester though haha
oh lmao
Like next semester is Tyler at his peak lyricism on Clancy tbh
WHAT I WAS WEARING, THE YELLOW DASHES IN THE STREET
next semester sweep :)
goated luz noceda
I PRAYED THOSW LIGHTS WOULD TAKE ME HOME
anything for nav to lose
luz noceda is based
Well itās more about the song than the listener so which song
ILLI MCMILLIN?
the prononciation of navigating is a lil weird too
goated illi mcmillin
next semester is just a better song
Alr I love both so much but Iām voting Navigating cause thereās too much hate on Tyler being vulnerable in the chat
it's written so well
The way the word itself flows with the chorus is kinda off putting
He can be vulnerable without being face level
Like next semester
Itās so personal to him
And he writes it in such a good way
itās crazy how like 10 songs atp connect back to HDS including next semester and drum show
Youāre not wrong I just donāt think that Navigating is written poorly I think itās intentional how he shifted his voice for it
still navigating
my preference š
I see drum show connect with jumpsuit more, I canāt get enough of that bass
Alr then
REAL OMG
I don't think it's hate on him being vulnerable it's just the way it's sung isn't very pleasant
It goes with the same part of the album with ATROFD and Oldies
I donāt think navigating as a whole is written poorly, just the bridge
Next sweep
RITN SWEEPS VIGNETTE AND RITN LOSES TO OLDIES STATION???????
yall are too much
HOLD UP WHO LET VIGNETTE LOSE TO RITN
yeah well oldies station is peak
IM SO ANGERED TOO LIKE WTF??
thatās what i said šš
It's all good as long as Next Semester wins!!!
deserved win tbh
i didnt vote in either of those rounds lmao
ritn so much better
i'm still mad about that š
ritn sweeps
didnt vote in overcompensate vs backslide either
drum show would fade into navigating so well because they're in the same key but i don't have the skills nor the software to do that
how to lie for attention:
navigating might be the best bassline with jumpsuit in the entire discography
oldies station is literally my second favorite song from clancy
I wish overcompensate didnāt lose to next semester but at least it lost to another peakest of the peak song
navigating for the win but i honestly love both songs nearly as equal so if next semester wins, i wont get mad.
just no navigating slander wtf
So next semester goes on to the end
im not trying to ragebait anyone š
and then navigating could fade into oldies station
now how tf would that work
š
the way i have it set up is snap back -> navigating -> next semester -> oldies station -> paladin strait. such a perfect flow idk why they didnāt go for that
"par" in "pardon my delay" and "you" in "you dont quite mind" are the same note
This is true
i graduated hs 3 years ago and im still a choir kid at heart š
CANT CHANGE WHAT YOUVE DONE
Alright I love both these songs so I am not voting in this one
snap back into navigating feels weird to me idk
I can't split my mind up between the two
START FRESH NEXT SEMESTER
SWEEP SEMESTER
Next Semester so good I'm going back to college to start fresh (with a different assoc. degree)
thatās entirely fair, I picked navigating but Iām not mad at either track winning - theyāre both insane and I donāt think anyone is weird for liking either one more than the other lol
agree. however next semester
YES! i say 10 minutes later
this is so easy guys
Start fresh next semester
good
Ikr
ns ftw
Huh
because it clears it
it does not
yes it does lmho
round 4/12
navigating is probably the most overrated track in tĆøp history, i donāt even think itās top half of clancy
honestly, in my opinion
Imo they don't have bad closers but that's your opinion and I understand it in a way despite disagreeing
personally, i think the navigating music video is better than the next semester one. I also like the bass better in navigating.
so iām thinking navigating
heathens, lane boy, and holding on to you:
next semester is good, but the lore based MV kinda puts navigating above it.
and message man and polarize and tear in my heart:
yikes bro
heathens and lane boy are very middle for the community so no. And holding on to you, while yes overrated in terms of overall tĆøp songs, i understand why it is
Polarize and message man?? Overrated?
i donāt hear anyone talk about message man or polarize, like ever. and timh is a good song thatās loved by non fans
and you donāt understand why navigating is overrated? youāre just a hater atp
what are you even saying
i think rage baiting?
I acquiesce that navigating is overrated but most overrated in tĆøp history feels like just a hating opinion idk
I vote next semester because it got me through some rough stuff yk so i dunno i never found it overrated but that might be just me
I may be bugging sorry if I am
all i know is the mv and the songās
topic for navigating is better than next semester
yeah different opinions and such
if you all let navigating win again iām going to commit crimes against humanity
i genuinely cannot think of a track that the community puts way higher then my opinion of it further then this, this is a fully opinion based thing
goated game
next semester glaze is crazy tbh
technically cards not crimes but
right higher than your opinion, that makes more sense
dema towers, the drums, the bass, the bridge
next semesweep
holy shit
-# where are you
THE OUTFIT
next semester live > navigating live
TYLERāS OUTFIT AND JOSH BEING TB IS AMAZING
navigating does not have as good lyrics or storytelling as next semester does
next semester is just heaven
that is true but imo it has better vocals, melody, and instrumentation
and also this is a purely vibes based thing but it just goes harder to me lmho
i think you mean < but thatās ojay
nopeee
yāall are the type who say āi guess weāre not gonna be playing navigating liveā
i donāt think itās better instrumentation, bc i think next semester utalises a wider range of instruments in a very effective way
my life was changed after hearing next semester live
also this is a really nitpicky thing but the mix on next semester always felt crowded and weird to me which is like half a point docked
and then i just look at you like
i love navigating cause its a hype song
š
this is genuinely the craziest next semester take ive heard ngl
also navigating before nico/dirty soul was fucking amazing
noah do you seriously think your opinion is so superior to others that you put other people down by making up strawmen
3 banger songs live back to back
itās a joke brotherā¦
well we're judging navigating, not the songs that come after it in the setlist
yeah but context and stuff
and then avoiding responsibility for the way you talk by claiming ājokesā
Might be the speakers I use, in which case I apologise, but listening to it in the car Tyler gets buried under all the different instruments and itās hard to make out the lyrics. Navigating never suffered from that problem on the same speakers
lol
i disagree, but fair enough
what ever happened to having opinions
iām not saying yāall arenāt able to have other opinions
sorry that I donāt agree with you
but thatās no way to be able to just shit on me
how do you disagree with my factual experience of my speakers š again it might not be the case everywhere but Iām telling you thatās what I have found
we have opinions, heck i disagree with mentalās, but they speak in a manner that makes every opinion seem open and make sense, you act like yours is the correct one
no im disagreeing with your opinion on how the mix sounds..
we all have different opinions
next sweepster š„¹
right okay. sorry most of the message I sent was the story abt how it sounds in my car and then you just said āI disagreeā which came off weird to me š but igu now
if it was factual, it would be next semester because it is steamed more and made more money.
opinions are personal to you, not factual.
I went away for like a few seconds and first thing I see are "wrong and right" opinions 
i love djo 
DJO MENTIONRD?
DJO MENTIONED
YES
AYYY
noah, when did i claim they werenāt personal and were factual. Iām saying the way you spoke made it seem like yours was the correct opinion
okay so obviously you donāt read all of the sentences i sent
AYYYY
Guys weāre talking about music, can you take this outside or just drop it?
bro he fully did
no because thereās no correct opinions
Fr
he literally never said that what are you smoking š im done bro
so like⦠why are they saying that iām saying my opinion is correctā¦
because iām not bro
sorry for starting this!
reference 
this is the factual correct answer haha
i think next semester will win by the fact that most people discovered tĆøp during school where they werenāt doing too well mentally
I agree honestly
@ocean folio whats your fav djo song
rn delete ya honestly
but theres so much to choose from..
THANK YOU
true. the crux is my top album of the year so far
next sweepester
YES OMG
oh god iām agreeing with kinton, this is risky territory lol
Just because Paladin has silence doesnāt mean itās bad
the crux forever 
clipse is my favorite album of the year so far
Link, Gap Tooth Smile, Charlieās Garden bro
im wearing my djo tee shirt rn š„¹
real!
YES
let god sort em out is so good
yes so peak
dttg is 2nd and balloonerism is 3rd
i was sadly away when he came to boston š
i do think portal by balu brigada will beat it next week tho bc the quality of these singles has been amazing
i havenāt actually heard balloonerism
link is my fav song of his
i was away when he went to dc
its also a different genre if im not mistaken
i missed his hometown show š
so idk if its comparable
Didnāt politix just drop a few days ago? I gotta listen to that one more I like it a lot so far
idek if i have a fav š
yeah it is but in terms of overall. Bc my fav genres are hip hop and all indie stuff
theres so many..
the album is great but listen to swimming & circles first
so my taste is a bit strange
CANT CHANGE WHAT YOUVE DONE START FRESH NEXT SEMESTEEEEEEEEEEEEEEER
politix is amazing
isnāt the new balu brigada album the first album release off of tylerās record label?
that isnāt my reasoning
when did I say that
probably
or was there one before that
You didnāt but a lot of ppl do
because i know balu is signed to his
i went to the ajr concert few weeks ago 
lucky american
quite an assumption
4 people opened š
I aināt about to get into a tĆøp discussion with kinton tho lol
benjamin steer, valley, cavetown, and chelsea cutler
so many arguments in the will of one person
when i saw green day
the linda lindaās, rancid and the smashing pumpkins opened for them
what is this nuclear bomb vs nuclear bomb
i wanna go see will wood so badly
if they somehow do a third lap of the us before they go international iām gonna riot @ocean folio
real 
heās insufferable idk Iāve tried to reason with him and it doesnāt work
i find it weird that arena bands this year are playing in amphitheaters
i blame the label
ajr, tĆøp
i also have a video of the whole crowd singing bohemian rhapsody š„¹
like GET BACK TO AUSTRALIA!!!
lmao
Wdym insufferable I just have opinions on songs
and me screaming the karma outro
the label doesnt have much to do with the touring i thought
this is the bohemian rhapsody vid
sigh how many souls i would sell to be able to do that
which artist was doing this
its too long discord won't let me send it ā¹ļø
they were just playing it on speakers and the crowd was singing it
i feel like who ever wins this wins the tournament just my feeling
weird
oldies?
i donāt think people would rank navigating over oldies imo
next semester tho
yeah
I do
By maybe 20 spots or smth
evil
al;right imma have to go w navigating on this one
Next Semester I love you but I really gotta go with Navigating on this one
Ew is crazy?
It isnt because this battle doesnt even matter
GIVE ME SOME ADVICE CAUSE I AM WASTING ALL THIS TIME
Ps next semester should win
Navigating aint got itās grip on everyone like it did last year
CANT CHANGE WHAT YOUVE DONE START FRESH NEXT SEMESTER
NEXT SEMESTER FOR EEEVEEEEEEEEE
i always thought they're on the same level
navigating it's more punchy for me
but the lyrics of next semester are more impactful
so it levels up and fills the lack of punchiness navigating does have
Navigating sweep
Next semester and navigating are the best songs on the album
For me Overcompensate is better than next semester, but valid
LEVEL UP: You are now level 8!
I agree, my top 2 Clancy songs are overcompensate followed by next semester, both are top 5 TOP songs for me
Mine is already out which is insane..
So im gonna do my best to sabotage navigating from winning
i remember
MY OHHH MYYYY
NAVISWEEPINGGGGGGG
-2
next sweepmester
navigating is the best song on the album
?
is legit the truth
Nope thats routines
you said atrofd was gonna sweep last time thats all im saying
also you said that redecorate was lore based. and so was the craving single version š
still you said that redecorate and the craving single version were lore based
So I can't come in here to discuss songs from my favourite album of all time without my past opinions being used to call my opinions terrible?
Have some productive conversation, it's not looking good on you this attitude
I ship these two songs and itās canon their child is drum show btw
š.
I completely agree
with a little bit of lavish and atrofd lol
IKR
You are difficult to tolerate so I'm just gonna block you
if navigating wins im rioting
š
I love Next Semester, looking at getting it tattooed next semester
š
Start Fresh Next Semester š£ļø
redecorate also literally is lore based it opens with a quote from a clancy letter

im not having this convo again.
Still talking about discussion 2 weeks ago by the way š
These are the sister songs of the album, two peas in the pod
They work so well opposite ends of the album
still tho, who says the craving is a lore song?
Navigating I really like, I don't love it though. It feels too polished for me, if you get me?
Sound is so incredibly clean that it takes away from the rough energy
I love both of them sm I literally can't pick
navigating is just the best song of the album. routines in the night is a close 3rd, overcompensate is a good 2nd
real
I think next semester has grown on me a lot
i used to hate it until like 3 months ago. its grown on me too
these two are actually some of my favourites from the album, both top 5 so this was really hard ngl
idec which one wins cuz theyāre both that good
also guys remember we all joined this server because we have something really special in common, letās not belittle or make someone feel bad for any opinions/thoughts they have. spread kindness š
Preach tysm
ofc! this is a safe community in a vicious online world, we gotta take care of it š«¶š¼
Next semester
100%. We all love this band. Let's focus on what we agree on.
yes 100%!! and one thing we can all agree on is that they make amazing music š„³
next semester by a landslide
This is gonna be the closest one yet
Navigating for me, but I want Oldies Station to win the whole thing
I love all of these songs
I'm really happy to see the support Next Semester is getting, it's my favorite off the record and it means the most to me. I remember last year it didn't place extremely high but I honestly think a lot of it was recency bias towards the songs from the album release. Navigating is Phenomenal and it's probably my 2nd favorite from Clancy but Next Semester is a top tier TOP song
I vote drum show
drum sweep?
NEXT SEMEDTER PLEASE PLEASE.
drum sweep?
Next sweepmester
oh no is it gonna be navigating vs oldies
Either way its gonna be tough as fuck
Can't change what you've done. Start fresh next semester.
in other words
next semester can't describe the comfort its given me after the mistakes ive made over and over again
yess i agree oldies for the crown š¤š¼š¤š¼
Drum sweep!
yes me too. the amount of times iāve cried to that song and used it to help me, i had to vote for it. but oldies has so much depth for me and at my concert it caused me to soobbb for like 10mins straight (fake you out and guns for hands didnāt help either) so i think imma have to vote for oldies later on š
YEA ME TOO
YES OLDIES STANS RISE UP šš¼
next semester for me, iām with tyler. i donāt like navigating as much as the rest of the record, mainly because the chorus feels clunky. i love the verses and the beat and yeah⦠but the āiām navigating my headā felt too cluttered. next semester for the win
Next Semester honestly. It gives me peace and I can't help but love it. It's made me cry and it's comforted me. Next Semester for the win <3
NEXT SEMESTERRRR
Caaant chaaange what youāve done
Next semester šāāļø
sonically? navigating
next semester supremacy
gotta go next semester
next semester is a masterpiece, no doubt but navigating is so relatable and homely to me
š
next semester and navigating are my top 2 in my clancy ranking bruhhh
But next sweepster
next semester will always hold a special place in my heart
both are my favorite, but next semester is too personal to leave it behind
Next semester!! Not even close
they are both 2nd and 3rd on my clancy ranking so its tough because they always alternate but i think lyrically next semester is better so i went with that
thank you for making the right choice
staaart freeeeesh next semesterrrrr
next semesters gonna win clancy battles
Sooo hard
Next semester hit me hard live
Navigating was a hard play on the album
1st song I loved from the start
Fr it has to
š
NEXT SEMESTER SWEEP
Navigating is sooo good
nico asking all the hard questions
Fr
no way wtf
TRAGIC

eh
Okay Iāve never actually been mad about a song battle result but this is pissing me off
bronze medal is fine
i love navigating but next semester is way better imo
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Iām sending everyone to Dema
This is diabolical
i now have a grudge against navigating, because like, how did the song that tyler didn't even like enough to want to put it on the album beat one of the most personal songs tyler's ever written in a genre of music he's never done before
oh noo
Clancy sb 11 results vs their seeding(fanmade from the 2 previous clancy song battles):
#1: Navigating(DEFENDING CLANCY SB WINNER) ššš
#2: At The Risk Of Feeling Dumb
#3: Midwest Indigo
#4: Vignette
#5 Oldies Station
#6: Routines In The Night
#7: Next Semester ššš
#8: Overcompensate
#9: Paladin Strait
#10: Lavish
#11: Backslide
#12: Snap Back
#13-14:The Craving (both versions)
Itās so dumb navigating is one of the most stale Clancy songs, even tho itās good there isnāt anything unique about it, whereas next semester is a whole new genre for TOP and it has some of the most personal lyrics Tylerās ever written, if you want Tyler to write about his grandma dying, just listen to the line itās leagues better than navigating too
Iām going to lose it Iām going to lose it Iām going to lose it Iām going to lose it
exactly, and the best part about navigating is the drums and bass, but tbh drum show has better drums, bass, vocals, and lyrics, it's just a far better song despite sounding similar
ok wtf happened here
NEXT SEMESTER NOOOOOOO š
there's no more purpose in life
Iām boycotting the clique what is this
navigATE
Nooooooo my baby next semester 
REAL
as tyler said āiām a dashes in the street in a room full of pardon my delaysā
Lol we win
i told u guys it was gonna win bc my votes never make it š
NOOOOO
I love both but I'm still sad
oh my god i
Nahhhhhhhhhh wthhhhhh
i will not stand for navigating slander in this thread
navigating get behind me š¤ŗ
nvm
Nah this is some bs
